How to solve the Indiana Jones Sacred Wounds puzzle

The Indiana Jones Sacred Wounds puzzle has you pulling levers on a Jesus mural to match numbers you can reveal with a bottle of wine. This give you a code needed to position the levers at Christ's hand, feet and the sacred wound - where the spear pierced his side.

It's a simple puzzle technically , but there are a lot of moving parts, walking around and five numbers to try and remember. Unlike other puzzles, such as the Indiana Jones bookshelf puzzle, say, there's no note or other guidance here. It's all about getting hands on with what's in front of you and working it all out yourself. With that in mind, here's everything you need to clear the Indiana Jones Jesus puzzle under the Vatican.

Indiana Jones Sacred Wounds puzzle solution

Before you can start the Indiana Jones sacred wounds puzzle you'll need to approach the dish in front of the central Jesus mural, where you'll get the option to pour the wine in you brought with you into a small dish. This will cause five levers to appear on the picture - one for each hand and foot, and one for the wound in Christ's side.

Each of these levers can be moved between four positions and to get the numbers need move them to you'll have to find the other murals that match the levers on the main image. Each mural will have its own bowl to pour wine into that this time will reveal a number.

Here's where to find each Jesus mural and the number it reveals when you add the wine:

• Left Foot - 3 (on the wall to the right of the main mural)
• Right Foot - 4 (through the gap in the wall to the right of the main mural)
• Right Hand - 2 (to the left of the main mural)
• Left Hand - 2 (through the door on the left hand side of the room)
• The Sacred Wound - 3 (in the next room adjacent to the Left hand)

When you enter the Left Hand room you'll be automatically locked in. the only path at this point will be through to another room, where you'll find the final mural of the Sacred Wound (which is actually a statue). Once you've got the last number from that you'll be able to find and use a two handed weapon to break down the wall and get back into the main chamber.

When you get back to the main mural of Jesus, select each lever and move it to the corresponding number revealed by each wine bowl. You'll know when you've got it right as the levers will all disappear - the mural will then open by rotating, to show the path ahead so you can carry on exploring. This path will eventually begin the process of completing the Vatican area by setting you on your way to complete the Indiana Jones Fountain of Confession dragon statue puzzle.

If you're waiting for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PS5 it'll be arriving in Spring 2025
